Knuckles Report post Posted June 6, 2007 Try updating your GRFX card drivers, see if that helps.. Also try turning off all the 'eye candy' in el.ini Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Antio... Report post Posted June 6, 2007 I have newest drivers, changed things in el.ini and still same problem =/ Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Knuckles Report post Posted June 6, 2007 I guess you could try 'Patch 2' that Ent posted in General Chat, see if that helps any.. Otherwise I don't know what else to suggest. :/ Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Placid Report post Posted June 6, 2007 Try enabling #poor_man in el.ini. Also, are there any errors in error_log.txt? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Antio... Report post Posted June 6, 2007 Patch 2 doesnt work, poor man enabled, still same thing =/ error_log: [19:09:50] Error: Can't open file "quest.log" [19:09:51] Error: Can't open file "./tmp/temp000.dat" [19:09:51] Error: Can't open file "commands.lst" [19:09:59] Client closed Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
NostaLG Report post Posted June 6, 2007 (edited) I have the same problem as Antio :/ although when I logg in I see my screen turn black and then EL closes down and nothing happens [20:17:54] Error: Can't open file "quest.log" [20:17:54] Error: Can't open file "./tmp/temp000.dat" [20:17:54] Error: Can't open file "commands.lst" [20:18:25] Error: Can't open file "./particles/moon_bubbles1.part" This error logg is on my new PC (I bought a new PC with Vista Home premium) 1.4.0 client works fine on my pc with windows XP home edition... Guessing it has something to do with Vista??? Do you have Vista 2 Antio? Edited June 6, 2007 by Thorongil Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Knuckles Report post Posted June 6, 2007 You could always try and delete the whole of your EL folder then re-install it? Because I'm running XP and no problems here.. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Antio... Report post Posted June 6, 2007 Yes, i did few times. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
NostaLG Report post Posted June 6, 2007 did a re-install... same problem... same erorr log... :/ Checked the firewall and it allowed EL... it wasn't blocking anything Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Antio... Report post Posted June 6, 2007 I tried few other ideas from different problems, i dont know what to do now... =/ Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
The_Piper Report post Posted June 6, 2007 There is a new patched client available from here: http://www.eternal-lands.com/forum/index.p...c=34803&hl= Try it, *maybe* youre lucky and your problems are gone Piper Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Antio... Report post Posted June 6, 2007 Still same oO Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
The_Piper Report post Posted June 6, 2007 Last idea i have: Enable #poor_man, disable eye candy, change the video mode to 1 (640x480x16), disable sound and music. *Maybe* your comp isnt able to handle the EL client anymore, but thats just a guess (points at 256MB RAM).

Antio... Report post Posted June 7, 2007 All done Piper, and nothing changed, it seems than any el-run like el.exe, patch from LabRat or el_patch3 from Entropy doesnt "read" el.ini Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Entropy Report post Posted June 9, 2007 Check to see if you have any firewall/antivirus that might cause problems.. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Antio... Report post Posted June 10, 2007 I dont have antyvirus at the moment, same with firewall. Don't know why, but now EL after click on "log in" doesn't freezing, but return to windows. Second thing is, than i had Win ME, but when i read Bernie's problem (i had same errors) i installed XP specialy for EL =/ Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Antio... Report post Posted June 10, 2007 Omg, i did it, now EL works fine, but its too hard to say in english for me. I hope Bernie will help me and post explain here. Tyvm for help guys Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Derin Report post Posted June 11, 2007 So we can safely assume that Windows ME is not for EL anymore, right? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
